12 Days of Christmas - Day one

It's the first of December!  Are you getting ready?  Our tree is in the upright position, the lights and garland are in place, but I haven't yet had the chance to decorate.  However, I need to do that soon, as the First Day of Christmas exchange is upon us!!

I'm taking part in a 12 Days of Christmas exchange.  I decided...why not?  So I sent off my packages, all 12 of them, to my partner in Scotland...and I've had my package sitting here waiting for the first of December to arrive.  This was the first day....now I don't know how my partner knew I liked boxes, but isn't this just adorable??  I love the little spool huggers!  No more spools unwinding, and boy can I use them!!  Thank you so much, Marcy!  The little ornament was inside the package without a number so I'm assuming it was to open today too.   She told me she made this beaded ornament herself...and I love it!!


I also got an ornament from another lady, Sharon, in the group as an exchange piece.  It's so sweet and I can't wait to set up my tree that I put my handmade ornaments on.  I might have to get a bigger tree soon!!  Thank you for the lovely ornament, so nicely stitched...and full of Joy!


Hopefully I'll remember and be back tomorrow with day 2.   

Here are the ornaments I sent Mouse over in England...



And here is the ornament I sent my partner with Stitcher's Circle...


And finally the ornament I sent my partner with Friendly Stitchers. 


I will show you later what I sent my 12 Days of Christmas partner...well some of it anyway, I forgot to get pictures of everything.  LOL
